Frequently Asked Questions
A 4-5 day family trip to Auli from Delhi costs Rs 14,000 for a sedan, Rs 18,000 for an Innova Crysta, and Rs 26,000 for a Tempo Traveller. This includes round trip, toll, parking, and driver allowance. Cable car and skiing charges are extra.
Delhi to Auli is approximately 500 km and takes 12-14 hours via Haridwar, Rishikesh, Rudraprayag, and Joshimath. Because the mountain roads are winding, we recommend an overnight halt at Rudraprayag or Srinagar (Garhwal) to make it comfortable for families with kids.
Yes! Auli is one of the best snow destinations for families. The beginner ski slopes are gentle, and kids love snow tubing, sledging, and the cable car ride. The alpine meadows and Nanda Devi views make it magical for all ages.
December to March is best for snow and skiing (peak snow in January-February). April to June is ideal if you prefer green alpine meadows and pleasant weather over snow. Avoid July-September monsoon due to landslide risk on the Garhwal roads.
Absolutely. Auli has gentle beginner slopes and certified instructors who teach children and adults. Basic skiing lessons and equipment can be arranged locally. For younger kids, snow tubing and sledging are safer and equally fun.
Vehicles reach Joshimath, from where you can either take the scenic Auli cable car (ropeway) or drive up the final stretch to Auli by road (subject to snow conditions). In heavy snow, the cable car is the reliable option, and we drop and pick you up at the ropeway point.
